A headless install of kodi in a docker container. Commonly used with MySQL Kodi setup to allow library updates via web interface.

docker run -d \ --name=kodi-headless \ --restart unless-stopped \ -v :/config/.kodi \ -e PUID= \ -e PGID= \ -e TZ= \ -p 8080:8080 \ -p 9090:9090 \ -p 9777:9777/udp \ matthuisman/kodi-headless:Matrix 

• -p 8080 — webui port
• -p 9090 — websockets port
• -p 9777/udp — esall interface port
• -v /config/.kodi — path for kodi configuration files
• -e PUID for UserID — see below for explanation
• -e PGID for GroupID — see below for explanation
• -e TZ to set the timezone eg. Europe/London, etc

There is also an example docker-compose.yml file which will setup a SQL db and set Kodi up to use it.

Docker will automatically pull the correct version for your platform

Any add-ons found in your config addons directory will automatically be enabled when Kodi starts.
Simply copy add-ons to the add-ons directory and then restart the docker container.

You can also install add-ons (and all their dependencies) from enabled repositories using the below command

docker exec kodi-headless install_addon "" "" "" 

eg. docker exec kodi-headless install_addon «metadata.tvshows.thetvdb.com.v4.python» «another.addon.id»

Sometimes when using data volumes ( -v flags) permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container. We avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user PUID and group PGID . Ensure the data volume directory on the host is owned by the same user you specify and it will «just work» ™.

In this instance PUID=1001 and PGID=1001 . To find yours use id user as below:

 $ id uid=1001(dockeruser) gid=1001(dockergroup) groups=1001(dockergroup) 

Setting up the application

SQL settings are entered by editing the file advancedsettings.xml which is found in the userdata folder of your /config/.kodi mapping. Many other settings are within this file also.

If you intend to use this kodi instance to perform library tasks other than merely updating, eg. library cleaning etc, it is important to copy over the sources.xml from the host machine that you performed the initial library scan on to the userdata folder of this instance, otherwise database loss can and most likely will occur.

• Shell access whilst the container is running: docker exec -it kodi-headless /bin/bash
• To monitor the logs of the container in realtime: docker logs -f kodi-headless

The below works if your media is stored on the same machine as this docker container and your using smb:// to share that media on the network.

First, mount your host media directory somewhere inside the container so Kodi can see it.
eg. —mount type=bind,source=/sharedfolders/pool,target=/media

Now, the below magic is done in Kodis advancedsettings.xml

  smb://192.168.20.3/sharedfolders/pool/ /media/   

That’s it. Now instead of always needing to scan over smb://, it will replace that with /media and scan much quicker. When it does find new items, they are correctly stored in the SQL using their smb:// path

If you receive errors like unable to iopause , what(): Operation not permitted , /usr/lib/kodi/kodi-x11 not found then see: https://github.com/sdr-enthusiasts/Buster-Docker-Fixes#the-situation

This image is deprecated. We will not offer support for this image and it will not be updated. This project is no longer maintained.

The LinuxServer.io team brings you another container release featuring easy user mapping and community support. Find us for support at:

• forum.linuxserver.io
• IRC on freenode at #linuxserver.io
• Podcast covers everything to do with getting the most from your Linux Server plus a focus on all things Docker and containerisation!

A headless install of kodi in a docker container, most useful for a mysql setup of kodi to allow library updates to be sent without the need for a player system to be permanently on.

docker create --name=kodi-headless \ -v :/config/.kodi \ -e PGID= -e PUID= \ -e TZ= \ -p 8080:8080 \ -p 9090:9090 \ -p 9777:9777/udp \ linuxserver/kodi-headless 

You can choose between ,using tags, various main versions of kodi.

Add one of the tags, if required, to the linuxserver/kodi-headless line of the run/create command in the following format, linuxserver/kodi-headless:Krypton

• -p 8080 — webui port
• -p 9090 — websockets port
• -p 9777/udp — esall interface port
• -v /config/.kodi — path for kodi configuration files
• -e PGID for GroupID — see below for explanation
• -e PUID for UserID — see below for explanation
• -e TZ — for timezone information eg Europe/London, etc

It is based on ubuntu bionic with s6 overlay, for shell access whilst the container is running do docker exec -it kodi-headless /bin/bash .

Sometimes when using data volumes ( -v flags) permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container. We avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user PUID and group PGID . Ensure the data volume directory on the host is owned by the same user you specify and it will «just work» ™.

In this instance PUID=1001 and PGID=1001 . To find yours use id user as below:

 $ id uid=1001(dockeruser) gid=1001(dockergroup) groups=1001(dockergroup) 

Setting up the application

Mysql/mariadb settings are entered by editing the file advancedsettings.xml which is found in the userdata folder of your /config/.kodi mapping. Many other settings are within this file also.

The default user/password for the web interface and for apps like couchpotato etc to send updates is kodi/kodi.

If you intend to use this kodi instance to perform library tasks other than merely updating, eg. library cleaning etc, it is important to copy over the sources.xml from the host machine that you performed the initial library scan on to the userdata folder of this instance, otherwise database loss can and most likely will occur.

Rar integration with the Leia branch is now handled by an addon, it is compiled with this build, but you will need to enable it, if required, in the settings section of the webui.

• Shell access whilst the container is running: docker exec -it kodi-headless /bin/bash
• To monitor the logs of the container in realtime: docker logs -f kodi-headless

For inspiration, and most importantly, the headless patches without which none of this would have been possible.

README.md

Run Kodi using docker as a server

• serves files through the Kodi UPnP Library to your UPnP client/players (such as Kodi or Chromecast).
• Web access every time , or use with some tools like htpc-manager
• Trigger library scan When you want using api or from sickbeard/sickrage/couchpotato/sonarr/radarr/.

If you require web access, make sure to enable this, and set the port to 8089. Because 8080 is default for http proxy , this docker image expose 8089

• You don’t need any display , personnaly I disable all menu and told kodi to start on settings
• As software fake display is use , every graphic change is cpu cost , disable library update progess ( Settings / Media / Library : Hide progress of library updates)
• Only configure scrapers , and set addons on auto update

 $ cp -r ~./kodi ~/kodi-server-profile 

For the last stable version,

 $ docker pull celedhrim/kodi-server 

 $ docker pull celedhrim/kodi-server:branchname 

 $ docker run -d --restart="always" --net=host -v /path/to/kodi-server-profile:/usr/share/kodi/portable_data celedhrim/kodi-server 

 $ docker run -d --restart="always" --net=host -v /path/to/kodi-server-profile:/usr/share/kodi/portable_data celedhrim/kodi-server:branchname 

Build the container yourself

$ git clone https://github.com/Celedhrim/docker-kodi-server.git $ cd docker-kodi-server $ git checkout branchname $ docker build --rm=true -t $(whoami)/kodi-server . 

Then proceed with the Quick start section.
